Basic settings
Route mode
Setting route type and route options
You can select the following route types:
R Fast Route : COMAND calculates the
route with the shortest (minimized) journey
time.
R Dynamic Route : same route type as Fast
Route . In addition, COMAND takes traffic
reports into account during route
guidance 6 . Thus, the navigation system is
able to guide you around a blocked section,
for example. If a faster route is determined
due to a received RDS-TMC traffic
announcement, the navigation system
changes the route. If possible, it will bypass
blocked roads.
R Eco Route : the ECO route is an economical
route that takes traffic announcements
into account (see dynamic route).
R Short Route : COMAND calculates the
route with the shortest possible
(minimized) route distance.
In addition to route types, route options can
also be set.
You can select the following route options:
R Use Carpool Lanes
R Minimize highways
R Minimize Toll Roads
R Minimize Tunnels
R Minimize Ferries
R Minimize Motorail Trains
If you select route options with a tick, the
corresponding types of roads will be avoided
in the route guidance where possible.
